A YANG Data Model for Reporting Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) and
                       Vulnerability Information

Abstract

   To improve cybersecurity posture, automation is necessary to locate
   the software a device is using, whether that software has known
   vulnerabilities, and what, if any, recommendations suppliers may
   have.  This memo extends the Manufacturer User Description (MUD) YANG
   schema to provide the locations of software bills of materials
   (SBOMs) and vulnerability information by introducing a transparency
   schema.

1.  Introduction

   A number of activities have taken place to improve the visibility of
   what software is running on a system and what vulnerabilities that
   software may have [EO2021].

   Put simply, this memo seeks to answer two classes of questions for
   tens of thousands of devices and a large variety of device types.
   Those questions are as follows:

   *  Is this system susceptible to a particular vulnerability?

   *  Which devices in a particular environment contain vulnerabilities
      that require some action?

   This memo doesn't specify the format of this information but rather
   only how to locate and retrieve these objects.  That is, the model is
   intended to facilitate discovery and on its own provides no access to
   the underlying data.

   Software bills of materials (SBOMs) are descriptions of what
   software, including versioning and dependencies, a device contains.
   There are different SBOM formats such as Software Package Data
   Exchange [SPDX] or CycloneDX [CycloneDX15].

   System vulnerabilities may be similarly described using several data
   formats, including the aforementioned CycloneDX, the Common
   Vulnerability Reporting Framework [CVRF], and the Common Security
   Advisory Format [CSAF].  This information is typically used to report
   the state of any known vulnerabilities on a system to administrators.

   SBOM and vulnerability information can be used in concert with other
   sources of vulnerability information.  A network management tool
   could discover that a system uses a particular set of software
   components, searches a national vulnerability database to determine
   known vulnerabilities, and applies information provided by the
   manufacturer through this mechanism to produce a vulnerability
   report.  That report may be used to indicate what, if any, versions
   of software correct that vulnerability or whether the system
   exercises the vulnerable code at all.

   Both classes of information elements are optional under the model
   specified in this memo.  One can provide only an SBOM, only
   vulnerability information, or both an SBOM and vulnerability
   information.

   Note that SBOM formats may also carry other information, the most
   common being any licensing terms.  Because this specification is
   neutral regarding content, it is left for format developers such as
   the Linux Foundation, OASIS, and ISO to decide what attributes they
   will support.

   This memo does not specify how vulnerability information may be
   retrieved directly from the endpoint.  That is because vulnerability
   information changes occur to software updates at different rates.
   However, some SBOM formats may also contain vulnerability
   information.

   SBOMs and vulnerability information are advertised and retrieved
   through the use of a YANG augmentation of the Manufacturer User
   Description (MUD) model [RFC8520].  Note that the schema creates a
   grouping that can also be used independently of MUD.  Moreover, other
   MUD features, such as access controls, needn't be present.

   The mechanisms specified in this document are meant to address two
   use cases:

   *  A network-layer management system retrieving information from an
      Internet of Things (IoT) device as part of its ongoing life cycle.
      Such devices may or may not have query interfaces available.

   *  An application-layer management system retrieving vulnerability or
      SBOM information in order to evaluate the posture of an
      application server of some form.  These application servers may
      themselves be containers or hypervisors.  Discovery of the
      topology of a server is beyond the scope of this memo.

   To satisfy these two key use cases, objects may be found in one of
   three methods:

   1.  on the devices themselves

   2.  on a website (e.g., via a URI)

   3.  through some form of out-of-band contact with the supplier

   Using the first method, devices will have interfaces that permit
   direct retrieval.  Examples of these interfaces might be an HTTP
   [RFC9110] or Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) [RFC7252]
   endpoint for retrieval.  There may also be private interfaces as
   well.

   Using the second method, when a device does not have an appropriate
   retrieval interface, but one is directly available from the
   manufacturer, a URI to that information is discovered through
   interfaces such as MUD via DHCP or bootstrapping and ownership
   transfer mechanisms.

   Using the third method, a supplier may wish to make an SBOM or
   vulnerability information available under certain circumstances and
   may need to individually evaluate requests.  The result of that
   evaluation might be the SBOM, the vulnerability itself, a restricted
   URL, or no access.

   To enable application-layer discovery, this memo defines a well-known
   URI [RFC8615].  Management or orchestration tools can query this
   well-known URI to retrieve a system's SBOM information.  Further
   queries may be necessary based on the content and structure of the
   response.

1.1.  Requirements Language

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
   BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.

1.2.  How This Information is Retrieved

   Section 4 describes a data model to extend the MUD file format to
   carry SBOM and vulnerability information.  Section 1.5 of [RFC8520]
   describes mechanisms by which devices can emit a URL to point to this
   file.  Additionally, devices can share this URL either through
   documentation or within a QR code on a box.  Section 2 describes a
   well-known URL from which an SBOM could be served from the local
   device.

   Note that vulnerability and SBOM information are likely to change at
   different rates.  MUD's cache-validity node provides a way for
   manufacturers to control how often tooling should check for those
   changes through the cache-validity node.

1.3.  Formats

   There are multiple ways to express both SBOMs and vulnerability
   information.  When these are retrieved either from the device or from
   a remote web server, tools will need to observe the Content-Type
   header to determine precisely which format is being transmitted.
   Because IoT devices in particular have limited capabilities, use of a
   specific Accept: header in HTTP or the Accept Option in CoAP is NOT
   RECOMMENDED.  Instead, backend tooling is encouraged to support all
   known formats and SHOULD silently discard SBOM information sent with
   a media type that is not understood.

   If multiple SBOMs are intended to be supported in the same file, the
   media type should properly reflect that.  For example, one might make
   use of application/{someformat}+json-seq.  It is left to those
   supporting those formats to make the appropriate registrations in
   this case.

   Some formats may support both vulnerability and software inventory
   information.  When both vulnerability and software inventory
   information is available from the same URL, both sbom-url and members
   of the vuln-url list MUST indicate that.  Network management systems
   MUST take note of when the SBOM and vulnerability information are
   accessible via the same resource and not retrieve the resource a
   second time.

2.  The Well-Known Transparency Endpoint Set

   A well-known endpoint is defined:

      "/.well-known/sbom" retrieves an SBOM

   As discussed previously, the precise format of a response is based on
   the Content-Type provided.

3.  The mud-transparency Extension

   We now formally define the mud-transparency extension; this is done
   in two parts.

   First, the extension name "transparency" is listed in the
   "extensions" array of the MUD file.  Note that this schema extension
   is intended to be used wherever it might be appropriate (e.g., not
   just with MUD).

   Second, the "mud" container is augmented with a list of SBOM sources.

   This is done as follows:

   module: ietf-mud-transparency

     augment /mud:mud:
       +--rw transparency
          +--rw (sbom-retrieval-method)?
          |  +--:(cloud)
          |  |  +--rw sboms* [version-info]
          |  |     +--rw version-info    string
          |  |     +--rw sbom-url?       inet:uri
          |  +--:(local-well-known)
          |  |  +--rw sbom-local-well-known?   identityref
          |  +--:(sbom-contact-info)
          |     +--rw sbom-contact-uri?        inet:uri
          +--rw sbom-archive-list?             inet:uri
          +--rw (vuln-retrieval-method)?
             +--:(cloud)
             |  +--rw vuln-url*                inet:uri
             +--:(vuln-contact-info)
                +--rw vuln-contact-uri?        inet:uri

   See [RFC8340] for a description of YANG trees.

5.  Examples

   In this example MUD file that uses a cloud service, the modelX
   presents a location of the SBOM in a URL.  Note that the Access
   Control Lists (ACLs) in a MUD file are NOT required, although they
   are a very good idea for IP-based devices.

5.1.  Without ACLS

   This first MUD file demonstrates how to get SBOM and vulnerability
   information without ACLs.

   {
    "ietf-mud:mud": {
      "mud-version": 1,
      "extensions": [
        "transparency"
      ],
      "mudtx:transparency": {
        sboms: [ {
        "version-info": "1.2",
        "sbom-url": "https://iot.example.com/info/modelX/sbom.json"
        } ],
        "vuln-url" : [
          "https://iotd.example.com/info/modelX/csaf.json"
        ]
      },
      "mud-url": "https://iot.example.com/modelX.json",
      "mud-signature": "https://iot.example.com/modelX.p7s",
      "last-update": "2022-01-05T13:29:12+00:00",
      "cache-validity": 48,
      "is-supported": true,
      "systeminfo": "retrieving vuln and SBOM info via a cloud service",
      "mfg-name": "Example, Inc.",
      "documentation": "https://iot.example.com/doc/modelX",
      "model-name": "modelX"
    }
   }

   The second example demonstrates that just SBOM information is
   included from the cloud.

   {
    "ietf-mud:mud": {
      "mud-version": 1,
      "extensions": [
        "transparency"
      ],
      "mudtx:transparency": {
        sboms: [ {
        "version-info": "1.2",
        "sbom-url": "https://iot.example.com/info/modelX/sbom.json"
        } ],
      },
      "mud-url": "https://iot.example.com/modelX.json",
      "mud-signature": "https://iot.example.com/modelX.p7s",
      "last-update": "2022-01-05T13:29:12+00:00",
      "cache-validity": 48,
      "is-supported": true,
      "systeminfo": "retrieving vuln and SBOM info via a cloud service",
      "mfg-name": "Example, Inc.",
      "documentation": "https://iot.example.com/doc/modelX",
      "model-name": "modelX"
    }
   }

5.2.  SBOM Located on the Device

   In the next example, the SBOM is located on the device, and there is
   no vulnerability information provided.

   {
     "ietf-mud:mud": {
       "mud-version": 1,
       "extensions": [
         "transparency"
       ],
       "mudtx:transparency": {
         "sbom-local-well-known": "https"
       },

       "documentation": "https://iot.example.com/doc/modelX",
       "model-name": "modelX"
     }
   }

   In this example, the SBOM is retrieved from the device, while
   vulnerability information is available from the cloud.  This is
   likely a common case because vendors may learn of vulnerability
   information more frequently than they update software.

   {
    "ietf-mud:mud": {
      "mud-version": 1,
      "extensions": [
        "transparency"

      "model-name": "modelX"
    }
   }

5.3.  Further Contact Required

   In this example, the network manager must take further steps to
   retrieve SBOM information.  Vulnerability information is still
   available.

   {
   "ietf-mud:mud": {
   "mud-version": 1,
   "extensions": [
     "transparency"
   ],
   "mudtx:transparency": {

       "vuln-url" : [

       ]
   },

   "model-name": "modelX"
   }
   }

5.4.  With ACLS

   Finally, here is a complete example where the device provides SBOM
   and vulnerability information as well as access control information.

      "mud-version": 1,

            }
          ]
        }
      },
      "to-device-policy": {
        "access-lists": {

            }
          ]
        }
      }
    },
    "ietf-access-control-list:acls": {
      "acl": [

          "aces": {
            "ace": [
              {
                "name": "cl0-todev",
                "matches": {
                  "ipv4": {
                    "ietf-acldns:src-dnsname": "iotserver.example.com"
                  }
                },
                "actions": {
                  "forwarding": "accept"
                }
              }
            ]
          }
        },
        {
          "name": "mud-65443-v4fr",
          "type": "ipv4-acl-type",
          "aces": {
            "ace": [
              {
                "name": "cl0-frdev",
                "matches": {
                  "ipv4": {
                    "ietf-acldns:dst-dnsname": "iotserver.example.com"
                  }
                },
                "actions": {
                  "forwarding": "accept"
                }
              }
            ]
          }
        }
      ]
    }
   }

   At this point, the management system can attempt to retrieve the
   SBOM, determine which format is in use through the Content-Type
   header on the response to a GET request, independently repeat the
   process for vulnerability information, and apply ACLs as appropriate.

6.  Security Considerations

   This document describes a schema for discovering the location of
   information relating to software transparency and does not specify
   the access model for the information itself.  In particular, the YANG
   module specified in this document is not necessarily intended to be
   accessed via regular network management protocols, such as NETCONF
   [RFC6241] or RESTCONF [RFC8040], and hence the regular security
   considerations for such usage are not considered here.

   Below, we describe protections relating to both discovery and some
   advice on protecting the underlying SBOM and vulnerability
   information.

   The model specifies both encrypted and unencrypted means to retrieve
   information.  This is a matter of pragmatism.  Unencrypted
   communications allow for manipulation of information being retrieved.
   Therefore, it is RECOMMENDED that implementations offer a means to
   configure endpoints so that they may make use of TLS or DTLS.

   The ietf-mud-transparency module has no operational impact on the
   element itself and is used to discover state information that may be
   available on or off the element.  In as much as the module itself is
   made writeable, this only indicates a change in how to retrieve read-
   only elements.  There are no means, for instance, to upload an SBOM.
   Additional risks are discussed below and are applicable to all nodes
   within the transparency container.

   If an attacker modifies the elements, they may misdirect automation
   to retrieve a different set of URLs than was intended by the
   designer.  This in turn leads to two specific sets of risks:

   *  the information retrieved would be false

   *  the URLs themselves point to malware

   To address either of these risks or any tampering of a URL:

   *  test any cloud-based URL against a reputation service

   *  provide the administrator an opportunity to approve further
      processing when the authority changes to one not known to be
      reputable

   SBOMs provide an inventory of software.  Knowledge of which specific
   software is loaded on a system can aid an attacker in identifying an
   appropriate exploit for a known vulnerability or guide the
   development of novel exploit against this system.  However, if
   software is available to an attacker, the attacker may already be
   able to derive this very same software inventory.  When this
   information resides on the endpoint itself, the endpoint SHOULD NOT
   provide unrestricted access to the well-known URL by default.

   Other servers that offer the data MAY restrict access to SBOM
   information using appropriate authorization semantics within HTTP.
   One way to do this would be to issue a certificate to the client for
   this purpose after a registration process has taken place.  Another
   approach would involve the use of OAuth in combination.  In
   particular, if a system attempts to retrieve an SBOM via HTTP or CoAP
   and the client is not authorized, the server MUST produce an
   appropriate error with instructions on how to register a particular
   client.

   Another risk is a skew in the SBOM listing and the actual software
   inventory of a device/container.  For example, a manufacturer may
   update the SBOM on its server, but an individual device has not been
   upgraded yet.  This may result in an incorrect policy being applied
   to a device.  A unique mapping of a device's software version and its
   SBOM can minimize this risk.

   To further mitigate attacks against a device, manufacturers SHOULD
   recommend network access controls.

   Vulnerability information is generally made available to such
   databases as NIST's National Vulnerability Database [NISTNVD].  It is
   possible that vendors may wish to release information early to some
   customers.  We do not discuss here whether that is a good idea, but
   if it is employed, then appropriate access controls and authorization
   SHOULD be applied to that information.

7.  IANA Considerations

7.1.  MUD Extension

   IANA has added "transparency" to the "MUD Extensions" registry
   [RFC8520] as follows:

   Value:  transparency
   Reference:  RFC 9472

7.2.  YANG Registration

   IANA has registered the following YANG module in the "YANG Module
   Names" registry [RFC6020]:

   Name:  ietf-mud-transparency
   Namespace:  urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-mud-transparency
   Maintained by IANA:  N
   Prefix:  mudtx
   Reference:  RFC 9472

   The following URI has been registered in the "IETF XML Registry"
   [RFC3688]:

   URI:  urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:yang:ietf-mud-transparency
   Registrant Contact:  IESG
   XML:  None.  Namespace URIs do not represent an XML specification.

7.3.  Well-Known Prefix

   IANA has added the following URI suffix to the "Well-Known URIs"
   registry in accordance with [RFC8615]:

   URI Suffix:  sbom
   Change Controller:  IETF
   Reference:  RFC 9472
   Status:  permanent
   Related Information:  See ISO/IEC 5962:2021 and SPDX.org
